"Poke-ins"

Nathan called pumpkins "poke-ins" until about last year. I still call him "poke-in" as a term of endearment. Each evening after kissing them goodnight, just before I close their bedroom door I call out , "Goodnight Poke-ins".

Benjamin, who has been seeing a speech language pathologist for two years, also calls them "poke-ins", and when I try to have him say it properly, he cocks his head to the side and says, duh Mommy, I just did.
